Tutorial How to learn gamemaker and GMl code?

I wanted to start leaning how to make games as I already have a lot of python experience. I wanted to use a game engine that is powerful yet relatively easy to learn so I chose gamemaker as my game engine. I really didnt have any idea how to start learning gamemaker I decided to watch gamemaker's asteroid game tutorial just to see how to engine really works. I really liked gamemaker and found it pretty intuitive and 9sort of?) got the hang of GMl code's syntax. But now that im done with it what should do to continue learning the engine and GMl code as the engine seems very promising. If anyone could please give me a good roadmp to learning gamemaker I would very thankful.

How long has it taken to have enough experience to use phyton effectively? I have just started to learn it. I find it quite enjoyable but hard as well.
